Default which camber kit?

and for the trolls yes i did a search.

which kit do i need? the adjustable a arm one or the adjustable ball joint kit? some say there are clearance issues with the adjustable a arm, will the adjustable ball joint be enough?

right now im looking at the adjustable ball joint from ingalls, the adjustable a arm from aim industries, and the Ingalls Adjustable Front Camber Kit but that ranges only from -5/8 to +1


and also which adjustablitly would i want to get? they range from +1.5 to +3.0 and some are -1.5 to +1.5

for suspension i have tokico illuminas and ground control coilover conversion.

I work with lowered cars and install camber kits all the time. From my experience I beleive the absolute best kits are by Specialty Products Co. On a Civic, the best choice for the front is the replacement adjustable ball joint. You can get the ball joint with 2 adjustment ranges.
They also make the rear arm, which almost looks and works the same nomatter who makes it from what I've seen, but I would stick with Specialty parts.
If your still looking I also sell the parts which you can feel free to call and I can give you every spec and price you want. Just let me know and I can PM or Email you my shop #.

Front:
#67125 Ball Joint -1.50 to+1.50
or
#67320 +1.50 to+3.0 (extended range for dumped cars!)

Rear:
#67030 Rear EZ arm -2.0 to +5.0 (will fix any camber prob.)

I most commonly use the 67125 kits on the front of all hondas, always a perfect fit and have never had a problem with any type of fitment, damage, or warranty issues.

The 67125 should be fine, it will get you back into specs. The car has 1 degree of tolerance so youd be fine.

We have the tool, but don't use it on Hondas, you can use a c-clamp, hammer and ball joint seperator or chisel. You can knock them out fairly easy without causing any damage at all to the upper control arm. You won't be reusing the old joint anyway so the amount of damage to it really doesn't matter.
